Re: [virt-tools-list] Default video model for Windows XP guests

Windows Server 2003 and Windows 7 seems to work fine with that video model, but Windows XP doesn't recognize it. It always ask for a driver, however cirrus video model works fine with Windows XP. Perhaps we should go back to cirrus as default video model for Windows XP (see attached patch) ? The main motivation for using vga over cirrus is that vga allows much higher screen resolutions. cirrus is stuck at 1024x768 I just tried with winxp pro sp3, and while the listing in 'device manager' has '?' next to it, everything seems to work quite fine, and higher resolutions can be set. Are you seeing differently? If not, I think we should stick with vga. - Cole ___ virt-tools-list mailing list virt-tools-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/virt-tools-list
